Those who have tried to imagine what University of Michigan punter Blake O'Neill is going through...well, try to imagine a little more.
He seems to be doing just fine and appears to be moving on wwith it all, reports. Mark Snyder of the Detroit Free Press.
Snyder reports:
For three days, while the Michigan fan base worried about his psyche, national pundits ranked where the play ranked in sports lows and ESPN’s Sports Science broke down to the hundredths of seconds how he bobbled, stepped and spun in those critical final 10 seconds Saturday night.
O’Neill woke up Sunday and moved on.
With his family in town from Australia, there was a support system had he needed it for healing.
Not that he needed it.
“I don’t know if there was a healing process, you make errors in a football game, you learn from them and you sort of move on,” he said, in his Australian accent. “Great to have them here to look over and go, ‘Hey, could you have done better there?’ My brother and dad played football growing up so they know the situation.”
